Olympic star postpones honeymoon for Scots race

A newly married Olympic star has postponed her dream honeymoon so she can attempt to win one of Scotland's top running events.

When Freya Murray was given a late call-up to compete at London 2012 it was an offer she could not turn down, even if it meant organising her wedding plans around the event.

Now the long-distance hero has shown her commitment to the cause once again by putting off flying to sunnier climes in a bid to become the first Edinburgh athlete to win the Bupa Great Edinburgh Run since its return in 2005.
